Truthful Tuesday:
Some people are draining. You’re not supposed to be their emotional outlet with no return policy.
It’s okay to unplug. 🔌

🛠️ TIP: Practice saying “I hear you, but I don’t have the capacity to hold that right now.” (It’s ok to set that boundary.)

Been giving too much of yourself lately? Tell us what you are doing today to set one boundary for your self peace and tag a friend who needs to as well!

Therapist says “feel your feelings.”
Okay cool, today I feel… attacked by Monday. 😩☕️

If your emotional support coffee isn’t cutting it, maybe it’s time for a little humor-infused healing.
Because here at The Comical Counselor, we don’t just cry…
We laugh, process, and then maybe cry again...but cuter.

Truthful Tuesday:
Some days I’m on my healing journey.
Other days I’m just hydrating and pretending I didn’t almost spiral because someone used the wrong tone in a text. 💧😅

Water = regulated.
Silence = self-care.
That weird blank stare = totally normal response to modern life.

Listen, if minding your business was a paid position, I’d have full benefits, PTO, and a corner office with a salt lamp.

✨Therapist-approved reminder:
You don’t have to be productive to be valuable.
You don’t have to be okay to be healing.
You just have to be... That's all!

💬 Sound off in the comments:
What’s your full-time emotional side hustle today?
(Mine’s overthinking with a splash of self-compassion.)

🧠✨ Soul Sunday Reminder: You’re Not Falling Apart—You’re Updating.

Romans 12:2 says, "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
Whether you read that in your Bible, heard it in therapy, or saw it on a self-help reel, it still slaps.

💡Here’s the tea:
You don’t have to copy the chaos around you.
You get to rewire your mind, reframe your thoughts, and opt out of nonsense.

This isn’t a personality makeover.
It’s a mental software update:

Less people-pleasing

More boundary-setting

Fewer 3AM spirals

More “Let me think on that and get back to you”

🛠️ Growth might look messy. It might feel like nothing’s working.
But real transformation isn’t cute, it’s courageous.

📍Today’s Soul Therapy:
You don’t have to be who you were last week.
You don’t have to think what you used to think.
You’re allowed to renew your mind, rewrite your story, and rest in the fact that evolving is holy and healthy.

💬 What’s one thought you’re working on unlearning or upgrading?

💥MENTAL HEALTH TIP: Fake an Out-of-Office Reply... For Your Emotions.

📨 "Hi there! 👋 My sanity is currently out of the office, recharging in a blanket burrito. I’ll be back once my nervous system stops glitching like dial-up internet. If this is an emotional emergency, please scream into a pillow or eat carbs responsibly. Thank you for your patience."

Look, sometimes your brain needs a break.
Not a full breakdown.
Just a buffering… please wait moment. 🌀

✨ Today’s Therapy-ish Truth:
You don’t have to be emotionally available for everyone at all times.
Sometimes the most healing thing you can do is put your feelings on Do Not Disturb and go do something brainless (hello, 37-minute scroll down IKEA hacks you’ll never build).

🛑 Set the boundary.
🧠 Take the nap.
🍕 Eat the pizza.
📴 Log off.

🧠💬 Drop a comment:
What’s your go-to "Out of Office" excuse when you’re just not emotionally available?

Moment with Marchaé: When Grief Doesn’t Match the Room

Sometimes, funerals ask us to play along. To nod, to smile, to pretend we all shared the same experience of the person being remembered. But what happens when your truth doesn’t match the version being celebrated?

This was one of those moments at my relatives funeral this past Thursday. Not every relationship is close. Not every legacy is clean.
And not everyone who passes leaves behind only warm memories.

There’s a difference between honoring someone’s life and erasing the harm they may have caused. There’s a difference between staying silent and speaking truth with grace.

I shared a message at this funeral that balanced honesty with calm because grief isn’t always sadness. Sometimes it’s distance. Sometimes it’s clarity.

And that’s valid too.

To anyone holding unspoken truth while others are telling the polished version:
You are not alone.
You don’t have to grieve someone you never had.
You’re allowed to tell the truth.

Marketing Monday: World Chocolate Day Edition!

Did you know today is World Chocolate Day? Let’s talk about the sweet spot where therapy and chocolate meet.

👉 Chocolate is a quick comfort.
👉 Therapy is a long-term investment.
👉 Both can help you cope, but therapy goes deeper (sorry, chocolate, I still love you! 😅).

If you’re craving real healing and not just a sugar rush, then let’s connect. Therapy can help you build coping tools that last longer than that pack of chocolate bars you have hiding in your sock drawer. But hey, bring chocolate to session if you want. No judgment here. And since its telehealth you won't even have to share! LOL

Ready to start your healing journey with a sprinkle of humor (and maybe a little chocolatey goodness)?

Book today! 🍫🧠

🙏 Sunday Soul Check-In (with a side of humor) 🙏

Blessed be the naps, the snacks, and the boundaries today. 😂

Sunday is holy for a reason. It's a chance to rest your spirit, your body, and your last nerve before the week tries you again.

So pause and ask yourself:
✨ What do I need to release so I don’t drag it into Monday?
✨ How can I protect my peace even from group texts?
✨ Where can I sprinkle in some hope (and maybe a donut)?

Rest is sacred. Silence is healing. And laughing at your own messiness? That’s spiritual hygiene, too.

Wishing you a peaceful and blessed Sunday. 💙

Hey you emotionally cool human being, here’s your weekend permission slip:

✅ You do not have to be productive today.
✅ Rest is not wasted time.
✅ Doing nothing is still doing something for your nervous system.

If your week has been chaotic, let today be a soft place to land. Put on comfy clothes, sip your favorite drink, and take a few slow breaths. You deserve it.

What’s one small, cozy thing you’re doing for yourself this weekend? Tell me below and let’s swap ideas!

🎆 Happy Fourth of July! 🎆

Today we celebrate freedom but let’s not forget emotional freedom matters too.

✅ Freedom to set boundaries
✅ Freedom to rest instead of hustle
✅ Freedom to feel your feelings without judgment
✅ Freedom to say no to the cookout if you need peace

Whether you’re enjoying fireworks, a quiet day at home, or a little bit of both, give yourself permission to protect your peace today. That’s worth celebrating, too. ❤️🤍💙

Mid-Year Mental Health Tip:

Give yourself permission to recalibrate.

Halfway through the year is a perfect time to check your boundaries, your energy, and your priorities. If something feels off, you can adjust. No guilt required!

✨ Say no where you need to.
✨ Recommit to what matters most.
✨ Release what’s draining you.

Remember: It’s not quitting if it’s protecting your peace!
